Alex Seyfarth #232

[AmericanHistoryX]

He’s an effort player, I don’t think anyone has said otherwise.

Channelling that effort the challenge.

St George put a lot of effort in.

I wonder if Blore still needs to get back to Sydney, would hire a limo myself to bring him up, even roll out the red carpet at COE, hell, I'd even scrub it clean if needed.

Some will say but we have 2 good second rowers, trouble is at the Tigers most of the time we are missing one through injury.

Young bloke showed good signs but he’s probably still a year off.

Send Seyfarth there then.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

I'm busy man. I got better things to do.

Any fan of Ellis is a man with a head on his shoulders.

Yes, Roberts had a very promising debut, comparing his performance to the baby giraffe, things that make you go hmm.

Adore Blore but he’s been off the pace this year

One is a promising edge player with loads of potential.

The other should put on bulk and play like Nathan Brown.

To think there was a potential swap deal Brown for Bird and it didn't happen, missed opportunity for some sting in the pack, would have been OK for a season or two.

It’s always reading player threads like this one. Go to the first couple pages when he debuted, and there is so much enthusiasm, but as the thread wears on, it the tone changes pretty dramatically.

And that's because the enthusiasm was only hype. Reality sets in.

It’s odd - he was a tank at one point when he was a kid.
Now he’s built like a basketball player…

I’m the same, put on 15-20 kg and just hurt people - he doesn’t lack ticker.

It carried on a while - wasn’t that long ago he was a damaging hole runner after running into a yawning gap one time, and then there was the ‘he must be an immortal, the warriors wanted him’ chat.

I don't know why he's talked up so much, the only time Seyfarth looks any good is when he comes on with 15 to go fresh, when the opposition is fatigued.

Any earlier and his performance is very close to being a plodder, I know that won't be popular, but it had to be said.

never got into the hype - ever.
Good kid to have around the club, tries hard - local junior and all that…
But he’s a bottom end squadie for mine… and shouldn’t be top 17 at this clu at this time.
Could hide him in a stronger 17, but ours isn’t real strong - as we’re discovering.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Average game.
Across the team though.

Better suited from the bench, clearly.

As has been said for ages, good short term Injection is when he is at his best.

Waste of space. The interchange bench is more profound in the modern 6 again era

Unfortunately you got it right there batboy
Our squad isn’t strong enough, I can’t wait for the day when Seyfarth is playing ressies because that would tell me that finally our forward depth is looking NRL worthy.
